I would say both players have playoff resumes befitting their regular season statures which sees both as the clear best goalscorer and Hull with clear edge in overall point production.
OV needs more than just one post 2nd round visit to measure up to Hull's four SCF appearances with consideration for the different eras. One more Cup final or a couple of ECFs would do it.
If OV has another season like the last one, or close to it, keeping him behind Hull becomes very arguable.
Which i've heard a lot on this sub-forum lately, that Ovi is very close to Hull.
But then again - the concensus also seems to be Ovi is still closer to 20 overall than 15 overall.
And Hull is generally seen as one of the strongest candidates for #5 - meaning let's say he's 6-7 on average.
I don't think #6 all time should be all that close to #20.
So which is it?
Is Hull too high - should he be closer to 20 too?
Is Ovi too low - should he already be inching closer to 5-10?
Is the gap between the 2 somehow bigger even though their resumes are very similar?
Of course Hull has all that WHA and more longevity. Are you saying Ovi only comes close to Hull for NHL - but with WHA Hull is still easily ahead? Or were you saying overall Ovi is already close to Hull?
Just seems to be a bit of inconsistencies involved here.
